Minutes: Chairman Dever: Opened hearing on SB 2343. Jim Silrum, Deputy Secretary of State: See Attachment #1 for testimony in support and to explain the bill. (2:55)Chairman Dever: The deadline to file this is the Friday before the election? Jim Silrum: For certain offices, legislative offices, multi-countyoffices, city and school offices, that would be true, but for statewide offices it is 20 day prior and for judicial offices it is 20 days as well. Those are already in statute. Chairman Dever: If you don't file a form, then are your votes counted? Jim Silrum: They would be counted but they would not be a part of the official abstract because you haven't identified yourself as a specific candidate. Therefore, the votes for any write in candidate that is listed who had not filed a certificate of write in candidacy would be listed in the abstract as a scattered write in vote. What has prompted this over the course of time is that for some reason, we and county election officialsand others, are noticing an increase in fictitious names that are being placed on the ballot. There are a lot of people who want to simply vote for themselves because they don't like any of the candidates that are there on the ballot. There are also situations in which I have had to Senate Government and VeteransAffairs Committee SB 2343 02/14/2013 Page2 deal with individuals that come into my office and they want to pull a prank or a joke as a way to get the name published. Under current law you can do that but I believe that it is a travesty to the process of democracy. Chairman Dever: I would agree with that, but don't we sometimes in smaller communities have situations where nobody puts their name on the ballot and they write the names in? Jim Silrum: That is true. We have had a number of situations where situations like that have happened and there are other statutes in play where 20 people have all received one vote and it becomes a recount situation. We then need to go through the recount process in order to go through that and as a part of that process, those candidates who are involved in recount do have the political recourse to say they want to have their name withdrawn from consideration in the process. We have had situations where we went through that process and there are no candidates that have remained as elected because everyone pulled their name from the process. Our thinking is that if this is the case and we put a stipulation that you file a simple form 4 days before the election, you have indicated then that you are willing to serve if elected. At that point if no one does, we can still have a full jurisdiction of officers because the appointment statutes can kick in. Senator Nelson: In the current language these things go through the Secretary of State's office, correct? Jim Silrum: Legislative candidates would come through the Secretary of State's office, county offices would go to the county auditor, city offices would go to the city auditor, school offices would go to the school business manager, and multi-county offices would go in some cases to the county and in others to us. Senator Nelson: How do you determine with these people that have 6 or 7 counties? Senate Government and VeteransAffairs Committee SB 2343 02/14/2013 Page3 Jim Silrum: Legislators would file their certificates of write-in with the Secretary of State regardless of what the look of their county is. If you look on look on page 3, the new subsection 5, there it determines where multi-county offices wouldfile their paperwork. Senator Nelson: How do the other counties that it affectsfind out about these people running? Jim Silrum: For legislators, we will let them know because we already do that anyway for anyone who is announced their intention to be a write-in candidate. Multi-county offices we take care that as well because we happen to be the filing office, but in those small circumstances like a soil conservation district or something of that nature, it is a simple matter of conversing between county auditors. (11 :30) Chairman Dever: On this committee, Senator Schaible is only one in a multi- county district. Senator Schaible: I actually won a school board election that I was not running for. I beat the incumbent president and was informed the night of the election that I had won. I didn't want the job. That is not the point, but the thing is that the election was held and some of these write-ins are causing some problems with some entities. The intent of this is kind of nice. Chairman Dever: Closed hearing on SB 2343. Senator Schaible: Moved a Do Pass. Vice Chairman Berry: Seconded. A Roll Call Vote Was Taken: 7 yeas, 0 nays, 0 absent. Senator Schaible: Carrier.

Minutes: Attachment 1 Chairman Jim Kasper opened the hearing on SB 2343. Senator Schaible appeared in support of SB 2343. We are looking for a write-in candidate to sign an original certificate of intent. The certificate must be in four days before the election by 4 p.m. When we have write-in candidates, a lot of times there are candidates that are written in whether they know it or not. Rep. Vicky Steiner What time are you talking about? Senator Schaible I believe it is you have to register in the county of your residence, so it would be the time of that county. Rep. Vernon Laning You referenced the intent of the individual. Coming from a small town, we have had elections that included write-ins where the candidate actually didn't want to advance their name, but they did take the office after they were elected through write-in process. Does this negate that in any way? Senator Schaible If this would pass, I don't think that they would be a candidate. I won an election for a school board when I didn't even know I was running, and I did not accept the position. The opposite side of this is if you have an opening then therein of because nobody ran for the election, you still have the appointment process to fill that position. Then they are on the ballot automatically the next time. I think it is important that we have candidates even if they missed the deadlines, and the opportunity for a write-in is still available. It is nice to know if the word gets out and this person is interested that they actually have the intent of being a candidate for that position. Rep. Vernon Laning Would the person be considered legally elected if they had not filed these papers and were willing to accept the office? Senator Schaible That would be best to ask the Secretary of State. House Government and VeteransAffairs Committee SB 2343 March 21, 2013 Page2 Rep. Karen Karls I didn't catch how many days prior? Senator Schaible Four. AI Jaeger, Secretary of State, appeared in support. Senator Schaible did a good job explaining. The time would be in the time zone that you are in. He read part of an email from his election specialist that said in cities that have 1 0-15 people may receive one write­ in vote. Many of those do not care to hold the office, but the system as it stands now still requires a recount and then they can opt out of the drawing if the results remain the same and nobody accepts the office. Then they appoint. The law just allows all this extra work not to have happened. You need to keep in mind that in these situations it is our office that gets a call.

Rep. Guggisberg testified as a sponsor of this bill. I was on the interim committee for employee benefits and we received a summary report of what the bill proposes to take out. We heard testimony that it is a 500-page report and there are departments that are spending 400 hours on it. It appears the 61 st legislative assembly found some improper use of these funds in a certain department and decided to have them report. It has caused a lot of work for departments that were outside of that agency. To get these funds first of all, they have to create a rule that has to go through the rules committee. These funds are tracked during our audits, both fiscal and performance audits. It seems like it is doing the same work twice. Rep. Ben Koppelman If your bill was passed, would these things still show up as a line item in other year end reports? Rep. Guggisberg The budgets I have seen so far in appropriations, these are not line items, but when the department is audited, it is something that they look at in the audit.

Tim Flakoll: Sponsor, support (see attached 1, 2). Sen. Armstrong: Is there any way to track how many of these exceed $5,000.00. Sen. Tim Flakoll: We could get that information; we have some. We know there are a number of them out there. It was just a matter of how much work do we want to make them go through and do them. Often times it's not necessarily right at that break point, like Appropriations are. We don't see many appropriations for $6,000.00. It's usually under the cap or way beyond the cap. We know the NOUS received them, DPI received them, Human Services received them; different agencies have received them but we haven't gone out through Legislative Council and said how many do you have over that amount. Sen. Casper: Who established the $5,000 amount; if this becomes law, who establishes when that it met or not. Sen. Tim Flakoll: That is a really important point in this whole matter. Right now, if Joe citizen comes in and asks for copies, they tell him how much it is going to cost. They don't know exactly because they don't know how many emails and other papers might exist out there. They give the citizen an estimate and they are required to probably 1 /2 or full payment up front.

  • 2021 FPA-ND Legislative Scorecard
    2021 NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATIVE REPORT CARD 67th LEGISLATIVE SESSION ABOUT THE SCORECARD We are pleased to share this scorecard for the 2021 North Dakota state legislative session. This is a snapshot of how lawmakers voted on key social and moral legislation related to life, education, family, religious freedom, and similar issues. Guided by our mission of building a state where God is honored, religious freedom flourishes, families thrive, and life is cherished, the scorecard focuses on seven bills. This scorecard is not an endorsement of any candidate or political party. It does not measure any lawmakers’ integrity, commitment to their faith, work ethic, or rapport with Family Policy Alliance of North Dakota. It is only a report on how each lawmaker voted. Please continue to hold our legislators accountable for their voting records and please pray that they may always vote in ways that uphold your biblical values as they make important decisions for our state. Sincerely, Mark Jorritsma Executive Director, Family Policy Alliance of North Dakota HOW WE FIGURED THE GRADES A bill is typically passed by a simple majority in the Senate (24 votes out of 47 senators) and the House (48 votes out of 94 Representatives.) Lawmakers earned percentage grades ranging from 0% to 100%, based upon dividing the candidate’s number of good votes cast by the number of total bills he/she voted on. The higher the score, the better their ranking. Not all lawmakers voted on every bill; the number of absences on these key bills is also noted and we encourage you to review whether your legislator actually voted on these important bills.

  • Aicpa Fall Meeting of Council by Patrick Kautzman, AICPA Council Member
    January 2019 | Volume XXXVI | No. 1 aicpa fall meeting of council By Patrick Kautzman, AICPA Council Member Since TCJA passed last December, we have heard from a multitude of professionals with varying levels of concern regarding the continued existence of the food and beverage deduction in light of the fate of entertainment expenses. Well, Notice 2018-76, issued October 3, 2018, clarifies that taxpayers generally may continue to deduct 50% of the food and beverage expenses associated with operating their trade or business. Professional Issues Update by Barry Meloncon, President and CEO of AICPA Barry’s professional issues update included his recurring reminders of the rapid pace of innovation and disruption in our world and our industry. • Since the year 2000, 41% of S&P consumer-centric companies have been acquired 2019 or gone out of business and 39% of the 5th to 85th largest firms no longer exist as standalone firms. Conference dates • The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report shows that of the top 10 de- clining jobs by 2022, #2 is Accounting, Bookkeeping, and Payroll Clerks and #7 is Accountants and Auditors. Barry’s response: They are referring to an industry that Management Conference is unwilling to change and adapt! He broke a future ready strategy down into 3 parts: May 22-23 • Technology – Master it before it masters you Fargo Holiday Inn • Trust – Build on CPAs expertise • Talent – Think broader Summer variety pack Technology – CPAs must embrace “Software as a Service” through client accounting June 17-19 services and virtual CFO services, “Big Data and Analytics”, “Artificial Intelligence” through Bismarck Ramkota machine learning and virtual assistance, and “Blockchain”.

  • 64Th North Dakota Legislative Session Voter Scorecard
    64th North Dakota Legislative Session Voter Scorecard on Education North Dakota Council of Educational Leaders (NDCEL) Table of Contents Summary of session 1 Education Bill Description 2 Legislative Districts 3 Legislator votes 4-15 Legend Golden apple award (voted for education 70-100% of the time) Silver apple award (voted for education 50-69% of the time) Scorecard Summary The 64th legislative has concluded. The NDCEL organization closely monitored and advocated for our schools, our school employees, and our students as we worked through bills and proposed laws that would impact us in education. The NDCEL office tracked approximately 80 bills. In this voter scorecard report, we are highlighting 7 bills that had some of the most tremendous impact on K12 education. One bill that was extremely challenging for us to work on together was bill 1461 known to educators as the “anti-standards bill” sponsored by Representatives Jim Kasper, Rick C. Becker, Dosch, Kempenich, Ruby Streyle, Thoreson and Vigesaa and Senators Bowman, Dever and Larsen that sought to remove our ND State Standards, remove us from the state assessment, and remove the ability of the state superintendent to execute the role of decision making regarding standards and assessment. At the end of the day, the bill in its total scope was not voted on in the House of Representatives. That bill was “divided” and the only pieces that were voted on were on the assessment and on the role of the state superintendent. Because the vote was so very different from the implication of the actual bill, adding that bill to the voter scorecard was rather misleading.
